i think already mentioned earlier by quite a few...
* not surprising to see tape still being used
* tape is still good and reliable and cost effective
* many big corps are still using it is backup
* corps may have whatever "live" data on some harddisk, but backup is usually still tape

and if anything, good to see that CIMB alerted their customers. always good to get reminder not to entertain scam callers.

Most likely are Ultrium LTO tapes which holds several TBs of data per tape. It has a really long lifespan and yes it can be encrypted as well.

If it's a Ultrium LTO tape, it's only 4.5 inch X 4.5 inch.

Why not? they're still accepting good old bank notes by many customers instead of digital currencies.

at my place, we seldomly encrypt the tape version of backup due to the time taken the backup to be completed...

habis la data dalam tu cimb lol

CIMB says that the tapes does not contain authentication data. If there is breach in those data, the bank could have suspend accounts until the user updates new PIN/password
